On Tuesday, representatives Brian Higgins (NY-27) and Kathy Hochul (NY-26) announced $1.4 million in Environmental Protection Agency grants awarded through the Great Lakes Restoration Initiative. Recipients such as the Research Foundation of SUNY-Buffalo State College will use the funds to address invasive species in New York state.
"The Great Lakes is an underappreciated regional and national asset, which contributes significantly to our economy and environment," said Higgins, a member of the Congressional Great Lakes Caucus. "According to the Brookings Institution, Buffalo alone would see economic gains between $600 million to $1.1 billion if the Great Lakes are restored. Investments like these move us closer to that goal."
"This funding is an important step in the cleanup and restoration of our Great Lakes and surrounding ecosystems," Hochul said. "The continued health of Lake Erie, Lake Ontario, and other Western New York waters is of critical importance to our economy, especially our tourism, recreation and fishing industries. I will continue to support efforts to protect our waterways as they are critical to the creation of jobs and economic growth in Western New York."
In Congress, Higgins and Hochul have advocated for robust funding for the Great Lakes Restoration Initiative. The Initiative helps New York state address invasive threats such as Hydrilla, a harmful aquatic weed recently discovered across Western New York, including North Tonawanda and the Finger Lakes.
These grants are among 21 invasive species grants awarded this year through the EPA's Great Lakes Restoration Initiative, nationwide. Recipients include The Nature Conservancy, Cornell University, the Research Foundation of SUNY-Buffalo State College, Central Michigan University, and Paul Smith's College of Arts & Sciences.

I remember that someone got a message from them saying it would be "very soon," but this was back in early or mid-summer. Does anyone know when they will do this again? I think they do it several times per year, and the last offer was in February.
I thought they only did it twice a year, but I'm fairly new to Navy Federal, so I'm not exactly the best source of information. I didn't realize it had been that long since the last promo! I thought it WAS in the summer. Maybe after Christmas?
It's usually available early in the New Year. As soon as you see it available do your transfer business quickly. I procrastinated last time and received a message that the program had ended, bummer. The very next day NFCU pulled the BT promo from the main web page.
Yeah, I'm hoping to BT when they offer it again. Does anyone know how long the interest is usually deferred? is it a year? or longer?
Its generally a year. I did not realize they had one during the summer. I am hoping for one here soon. I know they had one last november/december. I had transferred a balance off of my navy card a bit early and my timing was perfect allowing me to transfer it right back and get another year at 0% Which i hope to be doing again this year. If nothing else Psecu has 2.9 for year.
Can anyone confirm that they had an offer during the summer? Either I missed it or I didn't need at at the time and didn't pay attention, and then forgot.
Anyway, knowing that they usually do it after the new year gives me some hope. I freed up my entire balance on my larger card with them and I'm waiting for them to offer this again because I'm paying off a pile of debt slowly, and some of my debts are at 0% now, but those deals expire either in December or in the early part of next year, or spring (some of them not until fall 2013.) Yes, I have a lot of debt on a lot of cards. It's a long process to pay it off, but I have staggered everything at 0% or very low interest and that makes it infinitely easier to pay down.
AS per the CSR I spoke to sometime ago, they generally do it 2-3 times a year. They are targeted offers too.

Embedded Linux Conference Europe (ELC-E) 2012 wrapped up last week in Barcelona. By far, the most popular embedded platform of choice for demonstrations was BeagleBone. Here are four examples that include links to the slides taken from the eLinux wiki ELC-E presentation page. Videos of the presentations should be available from Free Electrons soon.
Commodore 64 demoscene with "What's Old Is New: A 6502-based Remote Processor". While this might seem like a bit of a throw-back, many modern issues and solutions were explored to give us this taste of the past, including the Linux remoteproc/virtio interfaces to remote processors, the AM335x PRUSS processor that is extremely adept at bit-banging and the Fritzing design tool. Matt has also shared a picture of his wiring handy-work.
Supporting 200 Different Expansionboards: The Broken Promise of Devicetree". If you frequent #beagle, you probably already know that Koen isn't easy to please and so the title shouldn't be much of a surprise. You might then be surprised to note on the first slide where "broken" has been scratched out! We certainly aren't there yet, but the device tree maintainers and AM335x kernel developers are starting to address the unique opportunities around BeagleBone cape expansion boards in the mainline Linux kernel, making a reality out of the dream of supporting hundreds of boards with a single kernel distributed ahead of the add-ons!
The continued enthusiasm of the embedded Linux community is just one element of what makes BeagleBoard.org successful, but it probably makes me happier than any other. With many of these developers moving the state of the Linux kernel ahead and even looking at sharing their hardware ideas in the BeagleBone Cape Plug-in Board Design Contest, I see a bright future where the largest collaborative software project of all time fully embraces the hardware and maker communities such that we can build a world where individuals and even children can reproduce electronics and computers down to the circuit level, not simply build on black magic.

Earlier this year, Encyclopaedia Britannica announced that it would discontinue producing its annual 32-volume printed edition.
"By concentrating our efforts on our digital properties, we can continuously update our content and further expand the number of topics and the depth with which they are treated without the space constraints of the print set," Encyclopaedia Britannica's president, Jorge Cauz, explained.
Despite the fact that the historic publisher reportedly has more than 500,000 subscribers paying $70/year to access its content online, Encyclopaedia Britannica's digital future is still in question. After all, an upstart like Wikipedia may not have the same trusted brand as Encyclopaedia Britannica, but Wikipedia's model has given it a far larger audience.
So what is Encyclopaedia Britannica to do? There are no certain answers, but one thing is clear: if it's going to succeed with digital, it needs to make its brand more relevant and visible online.
The good news for Encyclopaedia Britannica is that it appears to be doing just that with a new Bing deal that will include answers from Britannica Online directly within Bing search results. Yesterday, Microsoft announced the partnership on the Bing Search Blog:
Starting today, we're excited to announce a partnership with Encyclopedia Britannica to include Britannica Online answers directly in the Bing results page.
The answer provides a quick overview of the subject, a thumbnail image, and useful facts and figures making it easier than ever to get trusted content in search. We also pull in direct links to other trusted sources.
Interesting, the example searches provided still feature Wikipedia as the top result, but Britannica.com does have a prominent listing on the first page, sometimes above the fold. That's a big improvement for the publisher, which, it should be noted, doesn't appear on the first page of the SERPs for the same queries on Google.
Obviously, more prominent placement on Bing won't secure Encyclopaedia Britannica's digital future. Better and more prominent placement on Google would deliver far more bang for the buck. But for an organization that appeared to have been left behind, it's surely a step in the right direction.

New Canaan beats Avon, will face Windsor Sunday
Much has been made throughout this season of New Canaan's two-platoon quarterback situation, with outsiders sometimes looking to forge a controversy when there was none to be found.
On Tuesday night, that versatility proved to be a tremendous asset. In fact, Teddy Bossidy and Nick Cascione helped keep the Rams' season alive.
With the offense struggling most of the night, Bossidy's 16-yard touchdown to Andrew Read and Cascione's subsequent 2-point conversion pass to Jack Gilio gave the sixth-seeded Rams a one-point lead over No. 3 Avon with 11:01 remaining in their quarterfinal round CIAC Class L playoff game.
More InformationFact box
Cascione, who had received a majority of the snaps before Tuesday, was limited because of an ankle injury suffered last Thursday in a loss to Darien, but he later threw another scoring pass and conversion as New Canaan rallied for a 16-7 victory at Simsbury High School.
"Nick was a little banged up and I got most of the reps this week," said Bossidy. "It was nice that we could both contribute."
New Canaan (9-2), which has appeared in six straight state championship games, will face No. 2 Windsor (10-0) on Sunday at a site and time to be determined.
"Everybody was saying to the kids all week that Avon's league stinks, but we knew they were a good team and they came right down the field and shook our kids up," New Canaan coach Lou Marinelli said. "To our kids' credit, they hung in there."
The Rams (9-2) had to deal with a pair of initial shocks. The first was when Colin Moore, the Falcons' 2,000-yard back, broke a 49-yard run on the game's fifth play.
While New Canaan's fourth-quarter rally might have been the most obvious storyline, it was the play of the defense that set up the comeback.
"I can't say enough about them," Bossidy said. "It's not often that you win a game with 16 points. It's all on them."
The second setback was psychological, as the Rams went into halftime shut out for the first time in recent memory.
"We were surprised," Bossidy said. "We were a little freaked out. (Offensive coordinator) John Marinelli and the rest of the staff calmed us down. They said all the stuff was there, we just had to execute."
The Rams were still scoreless entering the final period, but on the third play, Bossidy hit Read to end the drought. With cornerback Casey Ouellette, the normal holder, injured early in the game, Marinelli after a timeout decided to go for two points. Cascione took a pitch from Bossidy and found Gilio open on an option pass for the lead.
"We practice that play," Marinelli said. "Nick didn't practice all week but both of our quarterbacks stepped up."
The next time the Rams got the ball, Bossidy led a 10-play, 55-yard drive. Cascione came in on third-and-goal from the 8 and hit Cole Turpin for a score, then found Graham Wagner on the conversion to make the score 16-7 with 3:53 left.
Then the Rams' defense stepped up one final time in what was a spectacular effort. Avon (11-1) quickly drove down to the New Canaan 23, but sophomore Zach Allen, one of the team's most underrated players, sacked quarterback Noah Hahn and then Wagner broke up a fourth-down pass to secure the victory.
Moore had 104 yards in the first half but just 4 yards on the ground and an 11-yard reception in the second half.
"The defense did a really good job, that was a key to the game," Marinelli said. "At this time of the year the kids are banged up. It was nice to see them fight through."

Rohan has Autism
May 2010: Rohan was 2 years old when he was diagnosed with Autism and a year later with severe Verbal Apraxia .
The Son-Rise Program
March 2012: After numerous therapies, alternative treatments and stressful 2 years of fainting hope, we found The Son-Rise Program. This program is based on a non-judgmental, accepting and loving attitude and we are running this program with the help of our lovely volunteers.
Now, instead of telling Rohan to play the right way we join him lovingly in his activities. He reciprocates back by interacting with us and letting us into his mysteriously wonderful world of Autism. Now, Rohan is happier, more attentive, more aware of himself and his surroundings, more willing to interact and play. Rohan has greater motivation to learn and motivation indeed helped him overcome his verbal apraxia challenges and allowed him to be able to verbalize. We are more hopeful than ever and feel the day of our miracle is not too far!
You can be a part of this miracle by offering to volunteer.
Treatments and Diet
Rohan is undergoing NAET and Biomedical treatments, he requires a special diet and we intend to schedule frequent Son-Rise out-reach sessions which will greatly benefit him in accelerating his progress.

(July 30, 2013) On June 13, 2013, the Knesset (Israel's parliament) passed the Reduction of Deficit and Limitation on Budgetary Expense (Amendment No. 13) Law, 5773-2013 (hereinafter the 2013 Amendment Law). This Law increases the proportion of deficit that can be taken into account by the government in determining the yearly state budget for 2013-2014. It also raises the ceiling on governmental expenses that can be authorized for 2013. (Reduction of Deficit and Limitation on Budgetary Expense (Amendment No. 13) Law, 5773-2013 [in Hebrew], SEFER HAHUKIM [Official Gazette], No. 2398, p. 82, Ministry of Justice website.)
In accordance with the Reduction of Deficit and Limitation on Budgetary Expense Law, 5752-1992 (hereinafter the original law), the state budget may include a deficit amount, subject to a limit defined by Israel's gross domestic product. The 2013 Amendment Law raises the cap on the deficit that can be calculated as part of the state budget from 3% to 4.65% in 2013 and from 2.75% to 3% in 2014. (Reduction of Deficit and Limitation on Budgetary Expense Law, 5752-1992, SEFER HAHUKIM, No. 1378, p. 45.)
The 2013 Amendment Law also raised the ceiling on the amount of governmental expenses that can be authorized as compared with the cap on such expenses set by the original law. Under the 2013 Amendment Law, this cap has been increased for the 2013 budget year from 1.7% to 2.2% above the amount spent in 2012. (2013 Amendment Law, supra.)
Explanatory notes for the 2013 Amendment Law draft legislation state that the 2013 state budget was expected to be approved at an extremely late date, following the election of the new government in March 2013. The outgoing government had called for early elections because of its inability to reach consensus on the adoption of a budget. The adoption of a budget for the 2013 budget year at such a late stage significantly limited the ability of the newly elected government to make changes in budgetary priorities. (Government Draft Bill [in Hebrew], HATSAOT HOK [Bills], No. 760, p. 314, Knesset website.)
Proponents of the 2013 draft legislation argued that the increases proposed by it were necessary in view of the difficulty of the new government to adjust to the predetermined cap on government expenses due to its late adoption and due to 2012 fiscal problems in Israel's economy. (Id.)

Lori Versaci is the author of today's post, which you can also find on her blog. The beautiful jacket you see below, Sympatico, is Lori's first contribution to Twist Collective. It's a little bit mod, and a whole lot lovely.
Chic little Sympatico is a modern-day take on a 60s bolero. Simple and elegant, it is a versatile jacket that works with pants or skirt, and it pairs easily with accessories so you can change the look for a day at the office, a night on the town, or a weekend in the city. Sympatico's flared bodice and darts create a fit that is flattering to most women. Three-quarter length, loose fitting sleeves and pockets add to the jacket's style and practicality.
Written for sizes XS – 5X, the jacket is a moderately easy knit. Worked in Sport/ light DK yarn on US #5 needles, the body is knit all-in-one in stockinette stitch, with seed stitch creating the tailored button band (short rows ensure a smooth transition) and bottom-edge border. Darts – front and back – give the jacket its flared shape. Pockets are worked up in advanced and joined. Front and back yokes are knit from the armholes up and joined. The collar stitches are then worked. Sleeves are knit separately and set in.
Sympatico is shown here in Halcyon Victorian Two Ply (color #117). For the best effect, a yarn with texture — shetland, tweed, marl or heather — with a wool base should be used. For summer, a cotton or linen mix, would also work well.

The Incredible Burt Wonderstone
The Incredible Burt Wonderstone has the perfect setup to pull off its comedic magic trick: the coupling of Steve Carell and Jim Carrey, two of Hollywood's sharpest comedic actors, an ensemble of equally funny supporting players, and the exaggerated world of Vegas magicians. The trick goes awry with Carell's titular character no slight of hand can turn the venomous Burt Wonderstone into a person worth caring about. When Wonderstone falls from his steady gig at a Vegas casino, he deserves it. When he tries to climb back up, there's little reason to care. The movie lands a lot of laughs, but most of the time, you just want Burt Wonderstone to disappear.
Discovering a passion for magic at an early age, Burt and his best friend Anton (Steve Buscemi) embark on a stage career, eventually working their way up to becoming the star players at Vegas hotel magnate Doug Munny's (James Gandolfini) flagship venue. Years of cutting each other up with swords, pretending to hang themselves, and dancing to the Steve Miller Band's "Abracadabra" has split them apart Burt is a megalomaniac and Anton can't remember why he got into the business in the first place. The fissure is deepened by the emergence of Steve Grey (Carrey), a punk rock illusionist who cranks the Criss Angel shtick up to 11. Burt and Anton try and battle Grey at his own game by living in a dangling plastic box for a week. They only make it an hour before calling it quits and officially splitting up.
Burt Wonderstone cozies up to the warm and fuzzy luddite ideals that there's room for both the old and the new as entertainment evolves, taking Burt back to the basics and reveling in his mastery of close-up tricks. The art isn't about glitz and glamour or Grey's shock value it's just about making people smile. And it does: as Burt bounces back from losing his job, losing all of his money, and losing his partner, he rediscovers his love for the craft with the help of his assistant Jane (Olivia Wilde) and childhood idol Rance Holloway (Alan Arkin). Together, they pull quarters from kids ears, make puppies appear from thin air, and have a swell ol' time. It's not that funny, but director Don Scardino and writers Jonathan M. Goldstein and John Francis Daley throw enough love on screen to make it palatable.
It's just too bad that the Burt we meet at the beginning of the movie is the worst kind of jerk. A running gag throughout the film is that he can't remember Jane's real name even when he starts realizing that forgetting it is a defining characteristic of his nature. Making it harder to care about Burt's plight is Carrey's amazing (yet small) performance as Grey. As the host of Brain Rapist, Carrey bounces back and forth between zen warrior of the magic world to ballistic crazyman. In one scene, Grey performs a card trick involving a self-mutilation and it's as disturbing and physically challenging as Carrey's Ace Ventura work. It steals the show from Carell, who struggles to turn Wonderstone's mean sensibility into genuine laughs.
As with any great magic trick, Wonderstone is effective in diverting our attention to the small moments. The best beats in the film come from the weird mumblings of Buscemi's Anton, the nice guy who is supportive to the bitter end, and SNL vet Jay Mohr's struggling magician character, who grins his way through a line about his "family of ferrets" that kills. But these flourishes can't save Wonderstone from its biggest problems, one surprisingly intertwined with the themes of the movie: despite a great cast and solid jokes, it's still going through the motions. Great comedy requires a little more magic.

We know Plano-based Frito-Lay is uber-gay-friendly and all, but seriously, this is the freakin' Super Bowl. And it's only Super Bowl XLV, not Super Bowl LXV.
The two gay Doritos ads below began making the rounds in the blogosphere yesterday, with some suggesting one of them might air during the big game.
Well, GLAAD did what many bloggers failed to — they actually contacted Frito-Lay. (Do most bloggers even have phones?) Here's GLAAD's explanation:
There has been tremendous confusion however, about what these ads actually are. Some say they could run during the Super Bowl – others say the ads were created by fans of Doritos, and will never air anywhere. So we reached out to Frito-Lay to find out what the truth is.
According to Frito-Lay Director of Public Relations Chris Kuechenmeister, the latter is true. He said the pair of ads in question were two out of 5,600 that were submitted to the company for its "Crash the Super Bowl" contest. Furthermore, the YouTube page on which the ads appear is a fan-made page, and not the official page for the Crash the Super Bowl contest. Kuechenmeister said the ads in question were not among the finalists chosen by a panel of judges, and have no chance of airing during the Super Bowl or otherwise.

Treasure Chest Thursday - Avon - Pretty Peach
This was a Christmas gift from my Aunt Lydia, not sure how old I was at the time. The Cologne was gone long ago but I kept this because it was so neat. Funny thing one of the Avon sites had the box and when I saw the box, I remember having the box. I no longer have the box but am very happy that I saved this cute Avon item.

Are you ready to see the latest device that Verizon and HTC have been working on? If so, make sure you circle November 13th on your calendar. HTC and Verizon have just sent out invitations to an event to be held in New York City on, inviting member of the press to "experience our latest collaboration."
The invitation doesn't reveal any definite clue as to what will be unveiled on November 13th, but we have a feeling that the rumored HTC DROID DNA may finally be ushered into the limelight. The HTC DROID DNA is expected to feature a stunning 5-inch Super LCD 3 with a screen resolution of 1920 x 1080 (that's 440ppi for those of you trying to keep count) and a quad-core Qualcomm Snapdragon S4 Pro processor.
Rumor has it that the Verizon will start selling the HTC DROID DNA in early December for $199.99 with a two year contract. Hopefully the price, launch date and spec rumors will all be confirmed on November 13th.
Are any of you still excited about the HTC DROID DNA or have you already given in and purchased the Samsung Galaxy Note II in an attempt to appease your fetish for an extra-large device?

A Holy Names nun in Portland, Ore., has helped a Holocaust survivor publish a book that tells of her early life in Poland, the horrors she endured at a German concentration camp and her lifelong struggle with the memories. Details are in the latest edition of the Catholic Sentinel in Portland.
Writing the book, according to the Sentinel's story, was a way for the woman to ensure people remember the atrocities of the Holocaust. But she has also turned her experiences over to God to rid herself of the hate.

Help paying for childcare
Childcare you can get help with
You can get help paying for childcare if it's provided by a:
- registered childminder, playscheme, nursery or club
- childminder with an Ofsted-registered childminding agency
- registered school
- home careworker working for a registered home care agency
This is known as 'approved childcare'.
Check what help you could get with childcare costs.
You can check if a childcare provider is approved or search for one in:
- England through Ofsted
- Wales through the Care and Social Services Inspectorate Wales
- Scotland through the Scottish Care Inspectorate
- Northern Ireland through the local early years team register
Childcare at school
You can get help paying for childcare provided by a school.
If your child is over 5, the childcare must be outside school hours and on the school premises.
Childcare provided by relatives
If you live in England or Scotland
You can only get help paying for childcare by a relative (for example a grandparent) if:
- they're a registered childminder and care for your child outside your home
- you're paying them using Universal Credit, tax credits or childcare vouchers
You cannot get help for childcare provided by your partner or paid for by the free early education and childcare scheme.
If you live in Northern Ireland
You can only get help paying for childcare provided by a relative if all of the following apply:
- they're in a childcare approval scheme in Northern Ireland
- they care for your child outside your home
- they care for at least one other child that is not related to you
If you live in Wales
You cannot get help paying for childcare provided by a relative.
Foster carers
Childcare provided by a foster carer in England only counts if they're registered as a childcare provider.
You may be able to claim if a foster carer provides childcare in Wales, Scotland or Northern Ireland.


text: For the off-season athlete there is no anabolic steroid more important or beneficial than testosterone. High levels of testosterone will promote significant increases in lean muscle mass and strength. This is assuming that the individual is consuming adequate calories. Compounds like Testosterone Propionate are not magical, you will still need to feed your body enough calories. During an off-season period of growth, this means total caloric intake will need to be slightly above maintenance. This will, unfortunately, promote body fat gain. However, the key to a successful off-season is gaining lean tissue while minimizing body fat gain to the fullest extent possible. By supplementing with Testosterone Propionate you will be able to achieve this more efficiently. High testosterone levels will promote a stronger metabolic rate. This is not a license to eat like there's no end in sight, but you should be able to make better use of your calories.

Brucellosis is caused by specific bacteria that infect domesticated animals. It can be spread to humans through:
- Drinking unpasteurized milk from infected cows, sheep, or goats
- Eating dairy foods from infected cows, sheep, or goats
- Inhaling the bacteria
- Breastfeeding—passed from an infected mother to an infant
- Sexual transmission
- Blood transplant from an infected donor
- Tissue transplant
Risk Factors
Factors that increase your risk of getting brucellosis include:
- Working with domesticated animals and livestock, especially sheep, goats, cattle, deer, elk, and pigs, or their waste products, bodily fluids, or carcasses
- Eating unpasteurized dairy products
- Eating undercooked meat products
- Living in or travel to high-risk areas
Symptoms of brucellosis usually appear within 2 weeks of infection. Symptoms can appear from 5 days to several months after infection.
In the early stage, symptoms may include:
- Discomfort
- Sluggishness
- Headache
- Muscle pain
- Fever
- Chills
- Severe headache and backache
- Nausea, vomiting, and diarrhea
- Rash
- Abdominal fullness or discomfort
- Joint pain
As it progresses, brucellosis causes a high fever (104° F to 105° F). This fever occurs in the evening along with severe sweating. It becomes normal or near normal in the morning, and usually begins again at night.
This on and off fever usually lasts 1 to 5 weeks. After 5 weeks, symptoms usually improve or disappear for 2 days to 2 weeks. Then, the fever returns. In some people, this fever returns only once. In others, the disease becomes chronic, and the fever returns, lessens, and then returns again over months or years.
In later stages, brucellosis can cause:
- Loss of appetite
- Weight loss
- Abdominal pain
- Headache
- Backache
- Joint pain
- Weakness
- Irritability
- Insomnia
Patients usually recover within 2 to 5 weeks. Rarely, complications can develop. These may include:
- Abscesses within the liver or spleen
- Enlargement of the liver, spleen, or lymph nodes
Inflammation and infection of organs in the body, such as:
- Heart— endocarditis
- Brain and brain lining— meningitis
- Bones— osteomyelitis , especially the spine
- Lungs—bronchitis and pneumonia
- Eyes—uveitis, choroiditis, and papilledema
- Scrotal swelling
Brucellosis is also believed to cause a high rate of miscarriage during early pregnancy in infected women.
You will be asked about your symptoms and medical history. A physical exam will be done.
Your body fluids may need to be tested. This can be done with:
- Blood tests
- Urine tests
- Bone marrow tests
- Spinal fluid tests
- Tissue tests
Pictures may be needed of your body structures. This can be done with:
Many people recover from brucellosis on their own. However, early diagnosis and treatment can reduce the risk of complications and infection. Talk with your doctor about the best treatment plan for you. Treatment options include:
Your doctor may prescribe one or more antibiotics to control and prevent brucellosis. Antibiotics are given for up to 6 weeks.
Surgery may be needed in people with abscesses or an infection that does not respond to antibiotics.
To help reduce your chances of getting brucellosis:
- Avoid eating or drinking unpasteurized milk and dairy foods. If you are unsure if a dairy product is pasteurized, don't consume it.
- Wear rubber gloves and goggles, and securely cover open wounds when handling domesticated animals, including their fluids, waste products, or carcasses.
- Wear a protective mask when dealing with brucellosis cultures in a laboratory.
- Have cattle and bison that live in areas heavily infected with brucellosis vaccinated by an accredited veterinarian or government health official. The vaccine contains a live virus and is dangerous to humans. For best results, calves should be vaccinated when they are 4-6 months old. At this time, there is no brucellosis vaccine for humans.

One of my favorite memories of Christmas was December 2002. Each year, when my family gets together on Christmas Eve, we have a small memorial service for our family members who have passed away. We read a special poem, say their names aloud and light candles for each member. It is very emotional and special.
"I'm just committed to living my life moment by moment according to the principles in God's word."
That simple but profound sentence, spoken by Lee Anne Genix at a Sunday school class in 1999, drew Ben Barry to his future wife. Freshly divorced, Ben was not looking for love that day but still felt drawn to her.
It's time for me to face facts, I'm the very definition of a television fanatic.
It's been that way since I was a child, growing up during the 1980s and 90s, watching all sorts of TV shows and made-for-TV movies with my parents.
Today I am going to include four card exercises for men and women, because at some point in our training we all fall short of understanding how important it is.
Most reasons are the same, universal excuses we all use.
I hear you saying it now – "I don't have the time" and the famous line – "It is so boring to walk on a tread mill. I hate it."
When counting blessings, it's easy to take for granted the five senses – taste, touch, smell, sight and hearing – if you've never been without one of them. Lancaster resident Tara Steele is counting having restored hearing in her left ear as a huge blessing, thanks to a surgery performed back in May.
A staple side dish at my summer cookouts is baked beans. I have a traditional recipe that my family loves, but lately I've been trying to switch things up a bit. I think these baked bean recipes may be just what I'm looking for.
Every parent knows, it can be hard to please the taste buds of everyone at the table. But, it seems like Cindy Ferguson does just that with her Spicy Apple Baked Beans.

ark your calendar for the S.C. Pageland Watermelon Festival set for July 18-19.
The two-day agriculture festival, with a history dating back to 1951, is all about the season's sweetest crop.
If you've ever savored a sliver of sweet watermelon on a hot July day while letting the red juice trace rivers down your chin, then you find it as no surprise that one such succulent fruit would be deserving of its own two-day festival.

PAGELAND – Tony-award winning actress and singer Patina Miller – Pageland's own – will be the grand marshal of this year's Watermelon Festival parade.
And the town is planning a celebrity's welcome for the hometown girl who touts her roots to Pageland to the world.
"She has done her fair share of telling everybody that she is from Pageland," said Mayor Jason Evans at the Pageland Town Council meeting June 3. "She is a homegrown product."

A team of students from the University of Hawai'i at Mānoa, Honolulu Community College and Kapi'olani Community College, are joining 19 other colleges and universities from around the world in the 2011 U.S. Department of Energy Solar Decathlon. This is a U.S. Department of Energy-sponsored competition focused on building net-zero energy homes to be displayed at the National Mall in Washington D.C. this September.
The students, who call themselves Team Hawaiʻi, were selected for participation in the Washington D.C. event from amongst 100 universities from around the world. Their entry, Hale Pilihonua, is an innovative, singularly designed home made of composite and renewable material and powered by photovoltaic panels surrounding its circular walls.
Team Hawaiʻi has raised close to $500,000 and is looking to raise another $800,000, mostly in in-kind donations of materials, technical expertise and other resources. This is the first time students from so many different disciplines from the UH System are collaborating on a project.
"With the finish line in sight, Team Hawaiʻi is in need of contributions from local businesses and the community to help complete the project and to make the trip to Washington, D.C. possible," said UH Mānoa College of Engineering Dean Peter E. Crouch.
Tonight, Monday, April 4, industry and union leaders are invited to learn more about Hale Pilihonua at a fundraising event at Honolulu Community College's Norman W. H. Loui Conference Center, 4:30 to 7 p.m.
Honolulu CC students will build Hale Pilihonua, based on designs by students from the UH College of Engineering and College of Architecture. Students from the UH Mānoa Shidler College of Business are providing marketing and fundraising services.
"At the April 4 event we will have a 'giving' tree with items that companies can choose to donate, for example $3,000 worth of nuts and bolts or bamboo flooring," said Elyse Petersen, Team Hawai'i's communications officer. "In addition, sponsor-a-student packages will be available. We expect to send 40 students to D.C."
In the upcoming months Team Hawai'i will be finalizing design construction of the house, which will then be shipped and reconstructed in Washington D.C.
Team Hawaii's innovative house can be seen on their website www.solar.hawaii.edu. You can also follow their journey at www.twitter.com/teamHawaii2011 and www.facebook.com/teamHawaii2011.

Prop Coenie Oosthuizen's knockout run and two tries vs the Hurricanes
Cheetahs prop Coenie Oosthuizen is fast becoming a fan facourite for the way that he carries and handles the ball, and of course his power up front. Against the Hurricanes he was on the losing side, but scored twice and made one big charge in particular.
Still just 24-years-old, and weighing in at a whopping 125kg's plus, the front rower affectionately known as Shrek earned his first Springbok cap against against England last year.
A product of the presitgious Grey College, Oosthuizen has become a try-scorer of note for the Cheetahs, and one to watch with ball in hand. In recent years he has had back and neck problems, but against the Hurricanes he showed that he's looking as strong as ever.
The Cheetahs came close but a 39-34 home defeat will have been a dissapointment after such an impressive overseas tour. Oosthuizen crossed twice with powerful tries, and earlier made a huge charge that knocked strong tackler Jack Lam to the turf.
"He was a little bit unlucky, I think I caught him on the wrong foot," said Oosthuizen at the halftime on-field interview. "I feel bad for him, hopefully he's okay."
Lam had to leave the field but he has been announced in the Hurricanes' starting lineup for their upcoming clash with the Chiefs at the Cake Tin. The Cheetashs will host the Reds on Saturday.

What is your saved command? Can you post it here? Not sure I followed either of the issues precisely or what you are trying to accomplish.
2. Re: Fireworks CS4 questions / Saved CommandsA. Wayne Webb Mar 12, 2012 4:45 PM (in response to abeall)
I'll try and I'll also try to insert two images.
Issue #1: A script I designed inPhotoshop take a directory of files and prepares them for delivery to Fireworks as a PNG file (Image 1). The steps are as follows: Open all files in the PNG directory, run Fit Canvas (Ctrl + Alt + F), run Image Size (Ctrl + J) setting the file to 600 pixels wide and the height to whatever it may be and then save the file.
Problem #1: The script runs fine with one caveat. All the images are the same width as designed. They are not the same heigth and can vary by as much as 10 to 15 pixels in the final file. Once I save the command it assumes that I want all the heights to be same; I do not. The height should vary from file to file which at present they are not because of the assumption of the script; make all heigths the same.
Issue #2: After having run the above script there is an additional step; export the file. I do not want the 2+ megabyte file as that is too large. So, the addtional item in the script is Export file (Ctrl - Shift + R). To reduce the file I deselect Include areas without slices as it is not needed. All I want is a flat plain-Jane PNG file.
Problem #2: Experience has shown me that at times the script still leaves the item checked. Here is how I know. The next step occurs in Bridge wherein I apply a metadata template and number followed by one manual change. When looking at the files if I apply my template it will only apply to some of the images; by no rhyme or reason. This means I have to reopen those that do not accept the metadata template and re-export from Fireworks.
If I can get my script to work correctly it should be a seemless operation. As it stands I am forced to manually open each file and run my steps manually. The final image for this record set is only one (Image 2) of 108 pages. In the near future I will be running this script on a directory of over 800 images. That would take a long time to do manually.
Thank you for taking a look at my quandry and I hope you have a viable solution. I have provided a link below so you can see how the resultant images will be utilized.
P.S. In checking my posting I see that this forum browser is horsing around with the images. If need be please download the two images.
3. Re: Fireworks CS4 questions / Saved Commandsabeall Mar 13, 2012 12:44 PM (in response to A. Wayne Webb)
#1 - So this is all one script in Fireworks? Or the first part is a Photoshop script? Have you tried the "Scale" options in the Batch Process? Try "Scale to Fit Area" -- this will allow you to resize while maintaining aspect ratio, so you could resize all images to fit inside a specified width and height, so the height would vary based on the width.
#2 - It's definitely possible to make a script that exports without exporting slices or including areas without slices.
Can you attach the script itself? You'll find it in your user directory if it was saved from within Fireworks, something like {User application directory}/Adobe/Adobe Fireworks CS5/Configuration/Commands
I think you can get batch process to work for you without a custom script, though.
4. Re: Fireworks CS4 questions / Saved CommandsA. Wayne Webb Mar 13, 2012 6:57 PM (in response to abeall)
Thanks again Aaron for the response,
Yes, it is all in Fireworks CS4. At present I have it broken down tho' at one time it was all one script. It was only after I noticed the forced height issue that I broke it down to run just the Fit Area. That being said here is the script and thanks for looking at it. I need the height in pixels to not be a set number, but determined by the height of the original image. And to further confound the issue I will shortly be using a differing set of pixel width images, 1,000 master PNG and a smaller 600 pixel wide image. I'm going to try my hand at creating one script that opens an image, fits canvas, resizes to 1,000 pixels, exports to directory A and then resizes that image to 600 pixels and exports to directory B. That should be a fun script.
I could not locate "Scale to Fit Area" in Fireworks CS4 and even then it is doubtful from the description that it would suit my needs. I need to fit the canvas area and then scale the results to 600 pixels by whatever the height for that particular image may be. The height of each image varies and it needs to be that way. If you open the first image in my previous posting onto your computer you will see there is a lot of blank area in it, thus necessitating the Fit Canvas command followed by the resize.
As for the exporting without slices vs. file sizes I resolved that aspect of my dilemma. Come to find out if I leave it checked it properly discards my metadata and creates the smaller file. That solves that aspect of it. It still leaves to be said that when run from a script wherein I was previously deselecting that option, I would get varying results. Some of the time it was deselected after reopening the file and sometimes not. Also, at times it would strip the metadata sometimes it would not. Flaky, but true.
5. Re: Fireworks CS4 questions / Saved CommandsA. Wayne Webb Mar 20, 2012 10:21 AM (in response to A. Wayne Webb)
Did you get a chance to see why Fireworks cannot in a script resize an image proportionally if given only one pixel dimension? This is sort of pressing to figre out and my fingers are getting worn out having to do this manually.

Same old crap from Ham.Vegetarian lions.
Seems I was right: pointless. I think a debate between Nye and OCG would have merit, and not be pointless. You can't really debate a Fundy, look at debating skeptic has gone here.-Nam
Hamm's presentation is actually more persuasive than Nye. Sadly, this Peyton Manning like effort by Nye may have actually given Hamm more credibility. Nye didn't rebut or address Hamm's assertions well at all. He miss many opportunities to really hammer Hamm's beliefs.
This morning on the national CBS news, they did a brief story about the debate. Pundant Charlie Rose opened the story by stating "The theory of evolution is still hotly debated..."
"Let's face it," Robertson said, "there was a Bishop [Ussher] who added up the dates listed in Genesis and he came up with the world had been around for 6,000 years." "There ain't no way that's possible," he continued. "To say that it all came about in 6,000 years is just nonsense and I think it's time we come off of that stuff and say this isn't possible.""Let's be real, let's not make a joke of ourselves."
There is no point in debating someone who can never be swayed.
Quote from: Brad the Bold on February 06, 2014, 06:04:27 PMThere is no point in debating someone who can never be swayed.Sure there is. The primary purpose of engaging in a public debate is not to persuade one's opponent, but to persuade the audience.

My Name is Myriads, and I'm a rather quiet Beastmaster on the Phoenix Server who got the crazy idea into his head to solo Blue Mage from 1 to 75. I did. And on the way with help from lots of friends I learned all of my spells.
Like all of us here, finding where you need to go, and what sort of party and items you may need to hunt a specific monster, can take a lot of work. And it often costs precious exp also. I used a lot of online forums and sites to learn from. To me it was fun. But often information was hard to come by.
So I decided to create a website that would help other Blue Mages.
The project became "The Blue Mage Hunting Grounds. An illustrated guide to hunting Blue Magic Spells"
You can visit it here: http://188.8.131.52/~tforum/blu/BLUMain.html
I hope that it helps all of you. Please feel free to contact me with information or comments at the address that you can find on the guide.

Smartphones are barely 5" long but are more powerful than the bulky personal computers of a decade ago. So what does the future have in store? "Many aspects of management are establishing protocols and analyzing to determine if business management decisions are working, or if other considerations are more practical," says Norm Schuring, vice president of GEA Farm Technologies, a manufacturer of technical innovations for dairies. "The future will be process management with instant evaluation, monitoring processes and equipment operations in real time—not just a scheduled evaluation." "The future will be process management with instant evaluation." It's not difficult to envision how a dairy or cattle farm might benefit from real-time data gathering and decision making from a mobile device. For example, current radio frequency identification (RFID) technology allows for rudimentary location tracking and data gathering. While this information is useful, it's reactionary. Future technology might allow farmers to make feed-rationing decisions and track livestock health down to the temperature and heart rate for each animal. The march for big data will be a big deal for row crop producers, too, says futurist Bob Treadway. "One of the most valuable farm assets is its data," Treadway says. "The aggregation of this data and its conversion to useful actions will drive the profitability of farming operations during the next decade." This transformation should come as no surprise. "The overlay of new technologies and techniques continues to change operations for agriculture, but not the driving purpose," he says. If you want to push the limits of your imagination, consider that just as RFID tags track an individual animal, emerging technology might allow the monitoring of individual plants, as well. Companies such as Hewlett-Packard are investing in nanotechnology that could monitor large areas—perhaps the entire Earth. "If we're going to save the planet, we've got to monitor it," says Peter Hartwell, HP senior researcher and project team lead. HP has labeled its project the "Central Nervous System for the Earth," which would deploy millions of tiny sensors across the globe for unprecedented hyper-local monitoring abilities. Phone Flex. One thing that's not getting smaller is the size of mobile screens. The average smartphone screen is 38% larger than it was in 2010, according to a study by NPD Display Search. That trend is not sustainable. New research suggests the future of mobile devices will be flexibility. Futuristic-sounding, but real, materials such as elastor polymer will allow phone companies to develop flexible, bendable devices. Rolling up your phone might sound impractical, but the technology would allow for some added functionality. You would hold your phone more naturally, and your device wouldn't break the next time you accidentally sat on it. No one can completely forecast what the future of mobile devices will look like. But experts agree that the future will be faster, smaller and more streamlined. Is a Smart Watch in Your Future? Smart watches are expected to achieve $6 billion in revenue by 2018, according to ABI Research. Watches aren't especially fashionable these days, but tech companies are betting that smart watches and other wearable technology will catch on. A few models are already available, although the technology is still in its infancy. Here are five reasons why Laptop magazine says these devices will be more than just a fad: 1. Information is easier to process at a glance. 2. It might help you live longer by tracking fitness and health-related data in real time. 3. The battery life is much better than that of smartphones. 4. There will be improved voice-related functionality. 5. Smart watches are more discreet and less disruptive than smartphones or Google Glass. Back to news

Alumna, actress Yvette Nicole Brown is living her dream02/10/2014
When comedic actress and University of Akron alumna Yvette Nicole Brown '94 settled on stage at the Student Union Ballroom Feb. 8 before a full house of fans, she let them in on a little secret: She had scheduled her UA visit a year in advance and marked it on her calendar with big hearts.
See our gallery of photos and comments!
"I love The University of Akron and wanted you guys to see the possibilities. Everything you're experiencing, I experienced," she said.
While Brown's career might be best described as serendipity, she said her "From UA to LA" Rethinking Race appearance was not. It was an opportunity to come home to UA — home to her mentor, Dr. Karla Mugler, associate vice president of integrated student success; home to Dr. Susan Speers, her professor of theatre arts; home to retired WZIP-FM general manager Tom Beck, whom she described as "a big inspiration;" home to her UA family — past and present. "I'm here because I want to be here. I wanted to leave breadcrumbs," Brown said. "You are my legacy."
As a poor child from East Cleveland, Brown said she saw herself as more than the drug deals she witnessed on her neighborhood streets. "I felt like I was more than that and The University of Akron offered that to me," she said.
Brown earned her way to UA through scholarships and immersed herself in college life as an Alpha Kappa Alpha sorority member and as a WZIP-FM program manager, among several other accomplishments. An aspiring songstress at the time, Brown said she would bring her keyboard into the WZIP studios at 3 a.m. and work on her demos.
"I never felt there was anything I couldn't do. I had some wonderful teachers here. I know they are encouraging you and inspiring you," she said to her audience, which included many current UA students.
With $1,500 in her pocket and a place to stay in Los Angeles for three days, Brown, after graduating from UA, headed off to the West Coast city with all she needed.
"I believed," she said. "I don't care what race you are, there are too many opportunities. I don't care how old you are, dreams don't expire. You do."

Mldonkey - multi-network file-sharing client
Originally by marge and frontalot from linkstationwiki.org
MLDonkey[1] is an open source, free software multi-network peer-to-peer application that supports the BitTorrent protocol[2] . It is also the name of the peer-to-peer overlay network that application uses. Originally a Linux client for the eDonkey protocol[3] MLdonkey is written in the Ocaml programming language and licensed under the GPL. The application separates the user interface (which can be a web browser, telnet, or a third-party GUI application)[4] and the code that interacts with the peer-to-peer networks[5][6][7].
MLDonkey supports the following network protocols, either partially or completely:
You may need to use the Unstable (Debian) branch:
- Get access to packages from the Debian unstable branch
- Then install mldonkey by
apt-get install mldonkey-server
apt-get update # update APT-Repository apt-get install mldonkey-server # install MLDonkey
compile latest SVN
If you would like to have the latest SVN-Version (better speed etc.) then you should do the following steps:
cd /mnt/disk1/share/source/ apt-get install ssh cvs patch autoconf gcc g++ libc-dev make zlib1g-dev libbz2-dev libgd2-noxpm-dev cvs -d:pserver:firstname.lastname@example.com:/sources/mldonkey co -P mldonkey ./configure make cp ./mlnet /root/.mldonkey/
Problems (both ways)
There are problems within the ARM9-Version. After some starts the mlnet-Service will shut down automatically with an errormessage. The Problem is caused by a file called mlnet_strings.EN_ANSI_X3.4-1968. I've found a workaround: You have to delete the file before mlnet starts. Mlnet will create the file as soon as it is started.
I've created a file called run_mldonkey in the mldonkey-dir (/root/.mldonkey/):
#! /bin/sh # cd /root/.mldonkey/ rm /root/.mldonkey/mlnet_strings.EN_ANSI_X3.4-1968 mlnet > /dev/null 2>&1 &
After that i have created a symbolic link within the /etc/rc2.d-Directory to get it automatically started. First tests were successfully, mldonkey seems to run stable
This project aims to offer the latest MLDonkey P2P client and additional utilities precompiled and packaged for the PPC LinkStation. This release is compiled without GUI support. See http://www.nongnu.org/mldonkey/ for more information. You may download the latest version from the downloads area.
- mldonkey-22.214.171.124
- ed2k_hash
- make_torrent
Older binaries + packages are available here. But there was feedback that they did no work properly because of the missing libmagic. So you would have to install the development tools which should fix this dependancy.
mkdir /mnt/hda/temp cd /mnt/hda/temp wget http://www.unet.univie.ac.at/~a0025690/mips-binaries/mldonkey_mips-2.7.6.tar.gz tar -xzvf mldonkey_mips-2.7.6.tar.gz ./install.sh
Compile from Source
You can find the latest sources of mldonkey at the mldonkey project at sourceforge. First install the development tools.
- Precompiled C development environment, running on the LS
- Then mldonkey can be compiled by:
wget http://easynews.dl.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/mldonkey/mldonkey-2.7.7.tar.bz2 tar -xjf mldonkey-*.tar.bz2 cd mldonkey-* ./configure --enable-batch --disable-gui make make install
you will need a startscript (/etc/init.d/mldonkey) for mldonkey.
#! /bin/sh export USER="root" NAME=mldonkey INSTALLEDPATH=/root/.mldonkey start() { su - $USER -c"/usr/local/bin/mlnet&" } stop() { su - $USER -c"kill -15 `cat $INSTALLEDPATH/mlnet.pid`" su - $USER -c"sleep 5" } case "$1" in start) echo -n "Starting mldonkey: " start ;; stop) echo -n "Stopping mldonkey " stop ;; restart) echo -n "Restarting mldonkey " stop start ;; force) echo -n "Forcing start of mldonkey " rm $INSTALLEDPATH/config_files_space.tmp rm $INSTALLEDPATH/mlnet.pid start ;; *) echo "Usage: /etc/init.d/$NAME {start|stop|restart|force}" exit 1 ;; esac exit 0
you can download it directly from here here.
cd /etc/init.d wget http://www.unet.univie.ac.at/~a0025690/scripts/mldonkey chmod 755 mldonkey
Additional Info
mldonkey should be runnable now by executing
/etc/init.d/mldonkey start
I had to add .sh That is what I use:
/etc/init.d/mldonkey.sh start
if you want mldonkey to be started automatically at startup:
ln -s /etc/init.d/mldonkey /etc/rc2.d/S99mldonkey
ln -s /etc/init.d/mldonkey /etc/rc.d/rc2.d/S99mldonkey
